Griffin Claw Screamin’ Pumpkin Ale
Pumpkin pie and light spice aroma. Taste is slightly crisp but very pumpkin pie-ish. Aftertaste is a very strong spice flavor that lingers lightly.
3.5 out of 5 Stars.
Bell’s The Oracle
Very strong sweet aroma, almost like rotten or over ripe fruit. Sweet, puckering taste with a sharp hop bite on the backside. Lingering hop aftertaste at a low level. No notable alcohol flavor like you might expect with 10% ABV. Just a very strong, slightly harsh hop flavor to let you know something unique is going on.

Revolution Brewing Paonia Lovett or Leave it IPA
No real aroma. Slight sweet taste of hops and malt. Not very hoppy for an IPA, but very nicely balanced and clean tasting. No real aftertaste but a slight hop sweetness and a red ale taste.
